Die Cutting Machines: A fun scrapbooking tool and a hot product on eBay!

With an 80% sell through rate and the 9th highest sales revenue on the site, category #71228 (Crafts > Scrapbooking > Die Cutting Machines) is our feature hot category on eBay this week.

Die cutting machines create designs by pressing a shape or die into paper, cutting it into precise shapes or letters. Die cutting machines are popular with scrapbookers, but can be very useful to anyone looking to embellish photo albums, paper crafts, and artwork. Die cutting machines tend to be very simple to use, and much less hassle than tracing and cutting by hand.

The average price for products in this category is around $65.00, but machines can climb up to $800-1000 per unit.

Here is a 2 year sale trend for category #71228

I love Terapeak - what a great little tool. I've had it less than 2 weeks and it's already paid for my annual subscription.

Terapeak gives me the tools I need to maximize my sales & I was able to qualify for eBay's Top Rated Seller in my first 3 months of selling!

My sell-through rate is consistently over 55% and a large part of that success is due to Terapeak!

A day without Terapeak is a missed opportunity to make a profit...

Terapeak helped me evaluate subniches and I was able to avoid costly mistakes of buying glass that looked great on paper until I found it sold slowly and priced too low to make a profit.

As an eBay Trading Assistant & Educational Specialist I couldn't be without this tool - I always recommend TERAPEAK to my students & when selling for others.

I can't imagine my business without my Terapeak membership. I sell for others so I rarely sell the same item twice. Terapeak helps me daily.

Terapeaks rocks! My sub-category is basically all Fixed-Price and Terapeak is the ONLY way to quickly find out what designs are selling the best!

I used Terapeak to evaluate my competitors' marketing and found strategies that worked and was surprised how many sellers lose money due to poor pricing and marketing.
